Is it normal too see a quick positive afterimage?

[Zreeper]

We've already answered your question. This is all totally normal ways a human eye works.

I had an eye-based fear a while ago and it's amazing how much weird and wonderful stuff your brain filters out, that you only notice when you start looking for it. Eyes are imperfect things. Brains are very clever. But if we start telling our brain to notice things and stop filtering them out it will.

You didn't really answer my questions - you don't just accidentally watch a video about palinopsia, you must have had something in mind? And have you ever taken any measures to address your anxiety

Thanks, to adress my aniexty from the start. in september i was really stupid and took ectasy at a party. I took a little bit too much and i ended up in hospital but more beacuse i was stressed about taken the drug.
i did recover quick from this. But then like month later i was reading on internet about something called HPPD wich is hallucegenic perseption disorder.
And some effects from this is like static vision and like palinopsia. I started to look for this symtoms and it started actually popping up. Now i cant get rid of this symotpms constantly obsessing over my vision.

OK, sorry to push you on this but it's harder to help people if we don't know context.

I'm not saying it's a clever thing to do, but some people take recreational drugs a lot and never worry. You're obviously feeling guilt and stupidity over taking ecstasy, unduly so IMHO. If taking drugs causes anxiety make sure you don't do it again, and if you do try and be more responsible (though obviously the best advice is still don't).

But you've said yourself you noticed symptoms after watching the YouTube video? Doesn't that tell you something?

I'd seriously consider talking to a doctor about anxiety, it's not normal to get this obsessed over something, and you have said you have a history of anxiety. And try and stop overanalysing your vision - it will seriously screw you up as you'll find all kind of oddness and defects that are perfectly normal.

Thanks, for your response, why i am so anixous is beacuse i asked people the same thing, and they cannot see the afterimage, therefore im extra anxious. i asked my dad, he cant see it, nether my mum or friends.

i asked them too look first at the door knob and then look to the wall to see if they get a quick afterimage in the same colour stumuli not negative, they dont.

The thing is was your vision ok till you took ectasy?

i never tought of it, until after the drug trying to look for symotoms and i saw it, if you watch your keys ex, and look fast att the wall, you still see them?

[axolotl]

f you watch your keys ex, and look fast att the wall, you still see them?

We're not going to start doing experiments for you.

Essentially all you're seeing is after-images. Everyone gets after-images.

No-one here can get in your head and see what you're seeing, and tell you if it's weird or not. And no-one here are opticians or experts in drug abuse.

If you are concerned see a doctor, but don't just get reassurance about symptoms, mention the anxiety and obsession this us causing.

trying to look for symptoms

This says it all doesn't it?

No, It Is Not.

Why do you have to lie? Positive afterimages are NOT normal.
